Work and play sometimes go together. October isn’t over quite yet, but it certainly has had some fun along with some hard work. We took off a few hours due to inclimate weather and found ourselves at the Blank Park Zoo. Some of us had not been for many years. God’s amazing creativity always shines forth! Following is just a snippet with some of God’s words (which I love so much) mingled in.
“And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heaven and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Genesis 1:28
“Oh magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together!”
“The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come, and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.”
Song of Solomon 2:12
“…because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high…” Luke 1:78
“Here is the sea, great and wide, which teems with creatures innumerable, living things both small and great. ”
Psalms 104:25
(Amy Grant recorded a song back in the ’70’s coming from this verse.)
“And God made the beasts of the earth according to their kinds and the livestock according to their kinds, and everything that creeps on the ground according to its kinds. And God saw that it was good.” Gen 1:25
Jenny and Thomas enjoyed feeding the very tame giraffe. He loves lettuce.
“But they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be wear; they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31
To see the animals the Lord has created, to take a walk immersed in nature and to deliberately watch the sunrise and sunset makes your heart zing with amazement by our Awesome God!.
Have a great week!
